We'd like to congratulate Whitney Sampson on successfully completing her CQC Registration for the first time and becoming the Registered Manager of Three Bridges Nursing Home 👏

The certification, led by CQC, is only given after a rigorous application process which looks at a number of different qualities; including whether the person has a clear understanding of care laws and rules, complies with relevant regulations and is fit to be registered as a manager. After her interview last week, we're pleased to say Whitney passed with flying colours - which won't surprise anyone who has had the pleasure of working alongside her!

Joining our Warrington nursing home as a nurse, Whitney has shown time and time again her dedication to providing exceptional care, and is a well-loved member of the team. We are incredibly proud of Whitney's achievements and excited to see her flourish in this next step in her career 🥹 ❤️

Congrats, Whitney!

Wendy, the brilliant Home Administrator at Three Bridges Nursing Home has recently implemented a very special addition to residents' bedroom doors! 🥰

With her mum Doris living at the wonderful home and her late father William also having lived there, Wendy knows the home inside-out and knows how dedicated the team is to providing the highest quality of care.

One small thing that Wendy realised was that when members of the team were new to their role, it might be nice for them to know a little more about the residents straight away - and so came her idea for informative bedroom door signs 👏

Now, everybody knows straight away from the signs a resident's preferences - whether they like their nightlight left on when they sleep or which music they like listening to! They have been a very popular, effective addition to the home and families, team members and visitors all absolutely love them 💚

🪷 Diwali celebrations at Green Park Nursing Home 🪷

Our Warrington care home always likes to celebrate Diwali, but this year, they welcomed Care home activity provider who provided a workshop for their residents.

The day included a visit from their favourite Bollywood dancers, making traditional diyas and getting henna tattoos!

Lisa, Activities Co-ordinator, said "We have many colleagues who celebrate Diwali and it was lovely to involve the residents in learning about their culture. One of our residents, Cecil, loved getting a henna tattoo and asked plenty of questions about Diwali celebrations. Diwali is all about love and light, and it certainly brought that to our home!"

Happy Diwali!

Everyone say 'Hello' to Dumbledore 🐐

Paisley Lodge Care Home was recently visited by 11 year-old British pygmy goat, Dumbledore from AlTreka and it was a real delight for everyone. Residents and colleagues enjoyed cuddles with him and also got to learn about caring for goats!

One resident in particular, Robert, loved this experience because he grew up on farms and has always been a big animal lover 💚

PS. How sweet are these photos?!

Three Bridges Nursing Home has recently introduced 'dementia sheets' to their residents; an illustrative communication method that allows non-verbal residents to express their emotions.

Bridging the gap in communication has allowed non-verbal residents, including people living with dementia, to share their feelings with the care team and relatives, which can help significantly reduce levels of distress and frustration. Now, residents are able to easily communicate and share feelings of happiness, joy or pain, thanks to the great initiative of Lily at Three Bridges!

When we say inclusivity is key, this is what we mean 👏
